13 Author Notes

I want to thank all my readers who have supported my work so far and their feedback. Let me use this chance to answer some of the questions I have gotten as well as respond to a few critics.

First off, I have received numerous queries on the power system the MC will follow and how it would translate into the CD universe. To answer this, let me point out the first major difference between the ST verse and the CD verse- In CD the direct energy accumulation can only get you to the level of low-level Saint and you need to study the Laws of the universe to progress further. In the ST verse, the Laws of Space-Time need to be mastered only towards the final stages i.e., Deity realm. Learning the laws before or polishing techniques in ST will definitely improve your strength and let you punch above your weight class but it will not increase your cultivation rank. Up to the Mystic Immortal and Deity, direct accumulation of energy is the key to increasing rank.

With that in mind, the power scaling will follow as explained below-

Warrior/Mage ranks 1-6 (CD)=Houtian (ST)

Warrior/Mage ranks 7-9 (CD)=Xiantian (ST) I know by this rating Linley should have been able to practice the Trans Heaven Diagrams earlier but due to the differences between source I had it so that Linley could only practice at peak Xiantian so 9th rank.

Saint (CD)=Nebula (ST)

Demigod (CD)=Meteor+Core (ST)

God (CD)=Planet+Solar (ST)

Highgod (CD)= Star to last stage Black-hole (ST); the differences in Highgods are vast from just mastering individual laws to fusing some and finally to Paragon. Linley's understanding of the laws will improve along with his ST cultivation.

Lesser Sovereign (CD)= Origin (ST)

Mid Sovereign (CD)= Universe (ST)

High/Chief Sovereign (CD)= Cosmos (ST)

Grand Mist Controller (CD and ST)

Well, that is the rough outline for the cultivation system.

Now another thing that some people seem to be bothered by is the amount of focused training Linley is giving his friends. I had clearly stated in chapter 1 itself that I felt that the potential of those around Linley was wasted too much and I would like to see some progress of the 4 supreme warrior clans in Yulan plane at least. How else is that going to happen if Linley does not help those around him, he already knows the dangers they will have to face- Apocalypse Day, Gebbados Prison break and Odin's reign of tyranny. Honestly, to all those out there who seem dissatisfied with Linley helping his friends and family I ask you, if you knew with some clarity, the disasters your near and dear ones would face, would you do nothing?

Still the hand holding will not be for long and even those like Delia, Bebe and a few others he might travel with, will only seek Linley for some guidance once in a while. They might not reach the same heights as Linley but they will certainly be powerhouses in their own right and not some decorations or trophies around the MC. That is honestly one of my main issues with IET's works, the female lead in all of them seem to be trophy wives, I will at least try for something like power-couple though so wish me luck.

Lastly, I could use some help with suggestions for magical beast companions for some of the other characters. Even if I might not be able to focus on them much, just let me know what beast companions you want to see some of the others be paired with. Thanks.
